The Flop House Movie Minute #31 - VIDEO - The Flop House Live

[0:00] And the next three guys I have coming on, they have a podcast.

[0:07] It's really funny.

[0:08] Wow.

[0:09] They had our theme music and everything.

[0:22] Yeah.

[0:24] Don't sue us.

[0:27] So do you guys want to go through your names and everything together?

[0:35] And let's start with the fine gentleman at the end, not Mitch.

[0:39] Wow.

[0:40] Fine gentleman.

[0:41] I'm Dan McCoy.

[0:42] I'm Stuart Willingham.

[0:43] My name is Elliot Kalin.

[0:44] And these are the Flophouse, ladies and gentlemen.

[0:45] One of the longtime staples of the show is that we do talk about notoriously bad movies

[0:56] and a lot of the current crap that's coming out of Hollywood now is really infuriating.

[1:01] So I always feel like it's a good time to poke holes in it.

[1:04] And I think one of the things, and you guys believe too, is that the horror movie genre

[1:08] has been going down tubes.

[1:11] I think one of the things I don't, I'm not a really big fan of, by the way, like a candy

[1:15] bar that may contain nuts, this may contain spoilers.

[1:23] So if you're allergic to spoilers, I guess, avoid this part of the show.

[1:26] This is a producer's factory that may have also produced spoilers.

[1:32] What's the accepted amount of insect parts or rat feces in these questions?

[1:38] So my question...

[1:41] I noticed you didn't answer that.

[1:43] I'm suddenly terrified due to the underscoring that's going on.

[1:49] I couldn't quite comprehend because my mind is so small, what you just said.

[1:54] Oh, that's okay.

[1:55] Okay.

[1:56] So my initial question is the Saw movies that are coming out.

[2:00] I was wondering how many movies is it going to take for Saw to follow the Jason trend

[2:05] that it will be in space?

[2:08] Wow.

[2:09] Saw in space.

[2:10] Saw in space.

[2:11] Yeah, sure.

[2:12] I think you've just sold a million dollars worth of movies.

[2:15] Is there some way to include a carnival?

[2:19] Some high school musicals.

[2:20] Yeah.

[2:21] Well, Saw has to go to the hood before he can go to space.

[2:24] Yeah.

[2:25] That's the way the chain works.

[2:26] Yeah.

[2:27] First you go to the hood, then you go somewhere else, then you go back to the hood.

[2:32] Then you go to Vegas.

[2:33] None of them go to the Old West, which is what I wanted to do.

[2:35] Saw in the Old West would be interesting, though, because he's going to have to construct

[2:39] all his traps out of things that were available at the time.

[2:43] Yeah.

[2:44] Pretty much it would be like the traditional Rube Goldberg trap.

[2:47] Right, right.

[2:48] There's a candle that goes through a string and the canary dies or something.

[2:52] Yeah.

[2:53] It looks hard enough back then as it is.

[2:55] I mean, you don't really need a trap.

[2:58] Yeah.

[2:59] If the Oregon Trail is taught as something else, people are going to die whether or not

[3:03] Saw is going to die.

[3:04] And also that it's fun to shoot more bison than you can carry.

[3:11] I don't like the Saw movie because I feel like you lost the face of a killer kind of

[3:15] thing.

[3:16] Because in Jason and Freddy, you had an identifying person who was murdering you.

[3:20] Yeah, it's very easy to identify with Jason, a man who has no personality, does not talk,

[3:25] and has no face.

[3:27] But Saw just seems to be about just how elaborate they are going to kill you.

[3:32] Well, but you've got to imagine Saw spent a lot of time with his papier-mâché making

[3:36] that mask.

[3:37] You know, I think that humanizes him.

[3:39] He's like a fifth grader.

[3:40] I would say what you're getting at is Saw is the thinking man's movie and, like, say

[3:44] Friday the 13th, Nightmare on Elm Street are the feeling man's movies.

[3:47] Yes.

[3:48] Because there's someone you can identify with.

[3:49] Yeah.

[3:50] Wait, isn't it that little puppet that's killing everybody in those Saw movies?

[3:53] What's going on?

[3:54] No, I don't understand.

[3:55] I think you're thinking of the game with Michael Douglas.

[3:59] Oh my god, that's what happened?

[4:01] Well, as far as you know, yes.

[4:04] You can only really see the game once, by the way.

[4:07] I don't know.

[4:08] Has anyone ever seen the game?

[4:10] Maybe your tape is broken.

[4:16] No, I think it will prove you wrong.

[4:18] We have the DVD of the game in our pocket.

[4:21] We will prove it after the show.

[4:24] Well, what are some of your favorite horror movies that you really like?

[4:29] Like, the ones that you think are the best.

[4:31] I mean, aside from, I have to say The Shining is kind of the stand-by horror movie to say

[4:37] is the best.

[4:38] I'm a big fan of the horror comedy, which is why I'm sort of glad that Zombieland has

[4:42] actually been successful this last weekend.

[4:44] Because historically, the horror comedy, America's like, what the fuck's this?

[4:49] I don't like to laugh while I'm getting scared, but I love An American Wild from London.

[4:54] Yeah, that's a pretty great one.

[4:56] It's got a lot of great comedic elements to it.

[5:00] It delivers everything the title promises.

[5:05] For that alone.

[5:07] The transformation scene is goddamn freaky as hell.

[5:12] But he asked us what our favorite movie is.

[5:17] I wish, did you know about the movie Unborn?

[5:21] Oh yeah, we just watched that.

[5:22] Yeah, that's the most recent podcast that we did.

[5:25] Oh, you did?

[5:26] Unborn, yeah, I wish, the movie doesn't play up any Jewish characteristics in any of the characters.

[5:33] Well, the only Jewish character in it is played by Gary Oldman.

[5:37] I think that there was a movie executive who was like, I hear J-Horror is really big right now.

[5:43] And they misunderstood it.

[5:44] You know, they were on J-Dates.

[5:46] It was the same thing, yeah, Jewish horror.

[5:50] I feel like you're getting shortchanged.

[5:52] Even though there are potentially two microphones on you at any time.

[5:56] I don't even know what's going on.

[5:59] I thought Larry David would have been a better rabbi in the movie, but I think that would have been more...

[6:04] They had many more problems in the movie than who to play the rabbi.

[6:08] Yeah, I think that the fact that Gary Oldman agreed to be in the movie was not the problem of the movie.

[6:16] One of my fantasies is to see Dice Man do a horror movie.

[6:21] I think it's happened.

[6:23] I mean, it wasn't called a horror movie.

[6:26] We're all familiar with that.

[6:31] He should make a movie called Dice Man.

[6:34] And it's like Candyman, but he kills people with games of chance.

[6:39] Does Candyman kill people with candy then?

[6:41] Not in the movie, but in his spare time I have to assume.

[6:44] How did he get the name otherwise?

[6:48] He's just a fan of the game Candyland.

[6:51] That's what he does.

[6:52] Then they would call him Candyland Man.

[6:55] That's a fair point.

[6:58] You got me.

[7:00] Stuart, do you have a recommendation for your all-time favorite horror movie?

[7:07] It's like giving a tiny press conference.

[7:11] I was planning on recommending the Saw movies, but I just don't know what to say anymore, so I guess it's Elegant.

[7:18] I think the first three are the best, but the last ones I've seen, they kind of repeat flashback information.

[7:24] I actually don't like those movies, they're not very good.

[7:29] A movie I'd like to recommend is a movie called Killing Spree, starring a guy named Asbestos Felt.

[7:35] He gets mad because he thinks his wife's cheating on him, kills a bunch of people, and then they come back from the dead and kill him.

[7:44] Killing Spree, starring Asbestos Felt.

[7:47] Now I have to assume that's his given name, Asbestos Felt.

[7:51] That's what his Christian name is.

[7:54] Elliot, do you have any recommendations?

[7:56] I have a soft spot in my heart for recent... I mean, I'm not talking about 30s horror movies or anything like that.

[8:03] I'm sure...

[8:05] Let's save things that people are going to actually go see, maybe.

[8:10] Wow, wow. Way to underestimate your audience.

[8:14] These rubes.

[8:16] Ouch.

[8:17] I love you guys.

[8:20] But John Carpenter's In the Mouth of Madness, I've always had a soft spot for.

[8:24] It's not a perfect movie, but...

[8:26] He's got nails in it.

[8:28] Yes, Sam Neill is in it.

[8:30] Juergen Prochnow's in it, right?

[8:32] Yes, Juergen Prochnow is also in it.

[8:34] Stewart just likes movies with people with strange names.

[8:38] Juergen Prochnow, he just enjoys saying it.

[8:41] But that one is... it's a thinker.

[8:44] But there's also, you know, scare effects and monsters and things like this.

[8:48] It's basically the story H.P. Lovecraft should have written for the screen.

[8:52] But he didn't, because he died long before he had that chance.

[8:56] Great.

[8:57] Well, I'm sorry we had to move on, guys.

[8:59] But ladies and gentlemen, The Blop House!

[9:09] Would you guys want to stick around on stage while the Blop House sisters perform?

[9:13] Sure.

[9:15] This is a very comfortable couch.

[9:17] Yeah, thank you. I'm glad that we have a big family here tonight.
